Book Description
Through the imposition of fines for unlawful conduct, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901(d) imposes criminal liability. In addition, subsection (a) of that statute does not appear to violate the United States Constitution's Equal Protection Clause, although it only imposes liability upon a limited class of persons. Moreover, that subsection appears to convey a sufficiently definite warning as to the conduct proscribed therein, so as to avoid being unconstitutionally vague and uncertain. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901, 8-1909, K.S.A. 8-2116, 8-2204, 21-3105, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 21-4503, U.S. Const., Amend. XIV.

Book Description
In light of well-established rules of statutory construction, the literal import of the provisions of subsection (k) of K.S.A. 66-1,109 must be disregarded to some extent, and that subsection must be interpreted as providing an exemption from the state corporation commission's regulation to those persons who operate the multi-passenger motor vehicles specified therein. Furthermore, that subsection's exclusion of certain "individuals" from such exemption applies only to natural persons and does not apply to corporations, partnerships, associations or other artificial persons. Cited herein: K.S.A. 66-1,108, 66-1,109, 66-1,111, 66-1,146.

Book Description
While a city possesses the power to adopt zoning regulations affecting land located outside the city, such grant of power does not extend to the enforcement of building codes in the same area. As the ordinances of a city may not, in the absence of a specific grant of authority, be enforced in an extraterritorial manner, such an extension is not permissible here, where no such statute exists. Additionally, pursuant to K.S.A. 12-702, a city planning commission must have 2 members who reside outside but within 3 miles of the city, with the rest being city residents. This statutory requirement exists independently of any limits imposed by the city on the scope of the commission's authority. Cited herein: K.S.A. 12-702, 12-715b.

Book Description
The ownership by a township of a residence which is provided to the road supervisor is a public purpose, insofar as the supervisor also oversees the equipment, materials and supplies of the township that are kept on the premises, as well as maintaining the township hall.

Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 80-104, K.S.A. 80-113.

The statutory requirements for the execution of deeds and other instruments for the conveyance of a corporation's real property or an interest therein are prescribed by K.S.A. 17-6003(g). As long as there is compliance with such requirements, provisions in the corporation's bylaws requiring execution of such instruments by officers of the corporation in addition to those specified in said statute are permissible. However, failure to comply with these bylaw requirements does not, as a general rule, affect the validity of a conveyance made in compliance with the statutory requirements. Cited herein: K.S.A. 17-6003, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 17-6009, G.S. 1868, ch. 23, section 38.
